The first and potentially only vice presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris took place on Tuesday at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia. The 90-minute debate, moderated by David Muir and Linsey Davis, covered topics like the economy, immigration, and the cost of living. This debate comes just eight weeks before the presidential election on November 5, 2024, and follows Harris’ consistent lead over Trump in recent polls.
Ahead of the upcoming Vice Presidential debate, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shared her insights and advice with Kamala Harris, drawing from her own experiences debating Donald Trump in 2016. Clinton urged Harris to avoid being baited by Trump’s tactics and instead employ direct and substantive attacks to potentially rattle him.
The stage is set for a vice presidential debate as both Tim Walz, the Democratic nominee, and JD Vance, the Republican nominee, have agreed to participate in a debate hosted by CBS News on October 1st. While Vance initially expressed interest, he now confirms his participation and even challenges Walz to another debate on September 18th, hosted by CNN.
Fox News Media has extended an invitation to the Trump and Biden campaigns to participate in a vice presidential debate before the 2024 election. The proposed debate would be hosted by Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, and potential locations include Virginia State University. Former President Trump has accepted the invitation on behalf of a yet-to-be-determined vice presidential running mate. The Biden campaign has already agreed to a vice presidential debate with CBS News this summer. The scheduling of these debates follows Biden’s challenge to Trump for multiple debates, which Trump has accepted.
